huh, interesting. so from a security perspective is there any other concern with this protocol? at least they're not using a mac relay server like Nothing Chats was

while this is great to hear (fuckin finally tbh), this honestly feels a little too late. online was pretty much dead the last time i was on and i was getting rolled by the same two people over and over

precisely, since google makes most of its revenue from ads, this move shouldn’t surprise anyone

what’s funny, if i remember correctly, was that when the show was first announced, i’m pretty sure the author was brought in as an “advisor” of a sort and they were talking about how the show was going to be more accurate to the books than the games.

we all know how that panned out

whenever we have new technology, there will always be folks flinging shit on the walls to see what sticks. AI is no exception and you’re most likely correct that not every problem needs an AI-powered solution.

I gotta ask, do these Hollywood folks really know anything about Kojima and the works he’s done? I feel like I don’t typically run into people who know Metal Gear Solid so I have to wonder if they even know who they’re meeting lol

Proton Mail, the leading privacy-focused email service, is making its first foray into blockchain technology with Key Transparency, which will allow users to verify email addresses. From a report: In an interview with Fortune, CEO and founder Andy Yen made clear that although the new feature uses blockchain, the key technology...

The fact that this game was actually nominated as “best RPG” with the likes of baldurs gate 3 and final fantasy XVI is ludicrous enough.

What are the more “trustworthy” email clients? Thunderbird still good?

Google in general doesn’t give a flying fuck about your privacy

EDIT: actually, they do care so much about it being shared with them :P

    you really have to give it to Nintendo to produce a console that can be handheld, easily shared with other players, and dockable so you can play it on the big screen. what a versatile system

    this one honestly sounds like a pretty solid entry in the soulslike games. people really seem to enjoy it and i’ve read multiple comparisons of this to DS1

    definitely not, i used this a ton too. it’s obvious reddit is just getting greedy

    brihuang95 ,
    @brihuang95@sopuli.xyz avatar

    there was definitely a time where i got some results from google in a very ad-like manner, super fucking annoying: “you may like this…” and spamming different search terms, locations etc.

    i haven’t seen it since, i figured they were A/B testing the design

    I honestly don’t want to replay the main story up to a certain point to access the DLC…I kinda wish it was like Blood & Wine where I can start the DLC directly.

    I agree… absolutely insane

    how are people liking the game? the reviews i’ve read seem pretty positive so i was hoping to pick this up at some point

    Didn’t Ubisoft have similar allegations just a few years ago too?? Or am i misremembering

    EDIT: It appears that these shenanigans are from three years ago. Link

    I do remember Blizzard’s fiasco, but after a quick search it seems like Ubisoft did have a misconduct probe just a few years ago
